Nicole Kidman digs archeological adventure

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Nicole Kidman is
attached to star in and produce "The Eighth Wonder," an
action-adventure centering on an archeological discovery that
sets off a globe-spanning race.

The script will be written for 20th Century Fox by Simon
Kinberg, who pitched it to the studio.

Kidman and Kinberg met when working on "Mr. & Mrs. Smith,"
which the scribe wrote and the actress was to have starred in.
When she dropped out because of scheduling reasons, the two
teamed for an untitled spy thriller that never came to
fruition. But Kidman and Kinberg looked for something to work
on together, and "The Eighth Wonder" was ultimately hatched.
